I've been hearing from people that WB has been trying to do as much as they can to sabotage Pacific Rim's success by mishandling the marketing because of Legendary Pictures splitting from them and going to Universal.
If true, this pisses me off. I'm also slightly amused, though, because every single person I know who knows what PR is has been really hyped for it, either on their own or because of the reaction of someone else they know who saw it.
I was never particularly bothered about it, because I don't really care about films or television.

Pointed hipster detachment is so mid-2000s.

And now Windows gives me a message saying that my hard drive is failing.  So now I'm without a laptop.

CrystalDiskInfo is a good tool to check on that.

In case I ever need a hasty escape from a steady blade in programmer initiation trials, what programs etc. are infamous enough to not merely cause my quick death but the irretrievable damnation of they who threaten me?

I wouldn't know any programs that do that, but you could always keep some spare laptops to chuck at him.

Agh, my roommate is moving out next week. He tells me this last night, because he had scheduled people to come check the place out today. I don't like either of them, but I probably shouldn't risk turning them both down, and I'm stuck feeling like an asshole no matter what I do because I have to tell somebody no. I wouldn't even be in this position if he hadn't said he wanted to stay here back in January.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Yeah, is this question supposed to make sense?

Not in the least. I simply wished to encourage a hyperbolic discussion of the worst programs known to man for the "kitschy nerd cred". https://xkcd.com/653/. Are a few apocalyptic puns and satanic glee too much to ask for? Here? :P.

The Rage thread is for venting about rages you've encountered through your day (and some rage-related derailing), not for inciting rage within programmers on these boards. Please make a new topic for that.

And regardless of what you do, please, please learn how to communicate your thoughts effectively in text form, because only 1 in 100 people can figure out what the hell you're trying to say at the first (or second, or third, or any) pass.

It wasn't supposed to make sense, man. It was supposed to sound like something out of a terrible secret society fanfic. I hoped that you'd pick up on the theme and run with it, given the OOC thread and our propensity for derailing. I maintain it was worth a shot.
